Yay, toys!
Angela, I just watched your ST:Picard... I'll call it "masterpiece", and I just have to confess my unyielding respect and admiration for how your brain works and that you would share so much of it with us. Thank you.
I'm looking for an answer to the question that drives us, Angela. It's the question that brought you here. You know the question, just as I do.
POLL ENDED? my outrage is matched only by my tardiness.
in the recent book video you say you want to read another le guin and i have to recommend the dispossessed or the left hand of darkness they're outstanding even by her standards
I mean solar system formation is kind of innocently sitting there at 12 votes right now. But from my experience, even while explaining physics I thought I understood inside-out, you manage to drop absolute gems that take me way too long to get over. I wonder what weird stuff is going on with the solar system formation!
Number 6: What do you want?! Number 2: Information... Number 6: You won't get it!!
Always hear arguments back and forth on "information", especially when the idea of "entropy" is included, mostly, from what I can tell, because it 'looks like entropy' not because 'it IS entropy'. Had my undergraduate professors in engineering and science stocked with PhD nuclear physicists, but when they got the PhD they were something ELSE FIRST because nuclear physics didn't really exist. Example, nuclear 'buckling' looking like the same math as for column 'buckling', so it became Material and Geometric Buckling Calcs.
The one about Information in physics would be good, especially since that is used by pseudoscience people who try to use quantum as a buzzword
How can you doubt the quantum quantum quantum?
Had to go with your choice, but toys is also a favorite. And then white holes if there's actually anything interesting to say about them.
Happy holidays!
Please physics nitpicking :-)
Was like, ooh, white holes, oh wait, nitpicking! No, information, what does that mean (in physics)? So, yeah, all of them (settled on nitpicking, for now) 😅
Was heading for Angela’s choice, but whoa I do need to know the toy question. Nerdy uncle of a nerdy niece.
Happy holidays!
Happy Holidays Dr. Angela!
I know I would enjoy any topic you pick Angela, so that is my vote this month.
